Join Us!
The Chatham County Beekeepers’ Association (CCBA) welcomes new members and particularly enjoys helping “newbees” get off the ground. We are a very active chapter organization of the larger North Carolina State Beekeeper’s Association (NCSBA) and recommend that you consider joining the state association as well. Our NCSBA is proud to be the largest state beekeeping association in the U.S.!
